Unforeseen Events
Always something unexpected happens.
He who takes off one shirt
Has to take off three more
And a walk between two elms
Ends in the jungle.
He who looks at a woman
Is lost
For the moment comes
When she calls his glance
To account.
Even metaphysics
Begin by inconspicuously
Exciting hearts.
Astonishment paves the way
For the incomprehensible.
Unforeseen events
Redeem the minutes...
Translated from German by Michael Bullard
